Sure it can. Just depends on the makeup of the user base/enthusiasm of each side.
The concentrated effort to boycott Glenn Beck seemed to work pretty well... despite good ratings, his show got canned because people called up companies protested and boycotted.
The Boycott probably would of worked if Chik-Fil-A was a crappier restaurant chain.
As it is, they rank number 1 for quality when it comes to chicken sandwiches, and what the guy did wasn't THAT strong a motivator. He said one thing, and he donates his own money to certain causes.
Throw into that people who
A) Agree with him
B) Haven't had Chick fil-a in a while
C) The anti-PC Backlash...
and the situation isn't THAT surprising.
